Albert Sr. had the vision of operating a company with strong customer-focus and keen product knowledge. With the death of Albert Stohr Sr. in 1964, Albert Stohr Jr., who was part of the company with his father, took over leadership of the business. In 1979, Rowe Bumpers was acquired and in later years offices in Toledo, Pittsburgh, Buffalo and Syracuse were opened. Albert Stohr Jr. has remained a key advisor to the merged company. Albert Stohr Jr. is a recognized leader in the material handling industry, having helped found the National Caster Alliance, which unites distributors in support of U.S. manufacturers. Jeff Stohr is currently president of the alliance. Trevor Stohr serves as vice president of the Cleveland Industrial Distributor Association ( CIDA ).Albert's two sons, Jeff and Trevor, joined the company in 1989 and 1992, respectively. Albert Jr. insisted that both sons work elsewhere before joining him in the company. Jeff worked with Parker Hannifin in technical sales and Trevor worked with Shell Oil Company as a sales marketing representative before joining Conveyer & Caster.In 2006, Conveyer & Caster, as it was known at the time, merged with Equipment for Industry, another long-time Cleveland-based material handling distributor. Equipment for Industry, Inc had served customers in Ohio and western Pennsylvania with general lines of material handling products since 1955.Advanced Belting & Conveyor Co, which was founded in 1994 by John Fitzgerald, was acquired in 2007.
